This is a very sharp vintage 1960s mens suit made in a charcoal grey wool fabric.  The jacket to this vintage 1960s mens suit has high set fairly narrow lapels and a three button front.  The shoulders of the jacket are padded and there is a flapped pocket at either side (I posed the jacket with the flaps inside the pockets), and a pocket at the left chest.  The jacket has an 7” centre vent at the back and is half lined with a grey acetate fabric.  It has two interior pockets. The pants have a pleated front and a leg that tapers to the bottom.
